Before Bin Night

The Kerbside Taxonomy Register grades every household box, and a Terminal grade must leave the yard by the next collection

A research-showcase brochure built around the Kerbside Taxonomy Register, a joint Trajectory Analytics Group and Adaptive Metrics Lab scheme that assigns every household's cardboard boxes one of four grades each collection cycle and requires a Terminal grade to leave the property by the next bin night. It surveys seven published studies on domestic classification, from a kitchen-cupboard container taxonomy already adopted as a contamination standard to a four-level bin-night maturity model.
